“Samantha did awesome watching my pets. I would use her again in the future. She gave us peace of mins while we were enjoying some time away. She always kept us informed and her visits were frequent enough that our dog would know we didn't abandon him. Lol Thanks Sam for everything!”


“It has been so nice to leave our home, knowing that Megan is watching things closely and most of all, taking care of our two fur babies! We were able to relax and truly enjoy our travels. Her always accurate and entertaining updates and photos made us feel like we had never left. She was extremely quick to pin down personalities and communicate with them…a true dog whisperer! We returned home to two well snuggled and well exercised pups, who seem very content. She even brought our mail in and kept a close eye on our house. We could not recommend Megan enough!! I think that the pups are still looking for her today? Such a great feeling…”


“Hannah was fantastic! She did a great job with our dog. We didn't need to worry with a bit with her. I would highly recommend! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


About: Hi! I’ve been a dog lover since my family brought home a puppy that instantly became my best friend (and greatest excuse to go on long walks). Since I was 14, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends and family—whether it’s tiny chihuahuas with big attitudes or German Shepherds who think they’re lap dogs. I genuinely love spending time with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to slow-and-steady seniors. I’m dependable, attentive, and always ready for a walk, rain or shine. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and send you way too many cute photo updates, I’m your girl! I’m currently available for pet sitting and walks throughout the day. Starting in mid-August, my availability will shift to evenings (3 PM–11 PM) on weekdays and all day on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule as best I can just send me a message! When it comes to caring for pets, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I prefer to stay in the pet’s home environment, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I take great care in following any instructions you leave-whether it’s about feeding, medications, walks, or routines, so your pet’s day stays as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll stick to their schedule, respect their space, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they want them!). You can count on me to keep a close eye on their wellbeing, and to treat your pet like my own while you’re away.

“Carol was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we felt so comfortable leaving our cat in Carol's hands. She was so nice and it was clear when we came back that our cat had been loved on and played with.”


“Justine was great with our dogs, visited them 3 times a day at varying hours. Flexible and we didn't have to worry about them when we were out of town for a weekend. Pups were happy and well taken care, Justine was very prompt with the check in times and ensured the went out, ate and were left happy until the next visit. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for drop in visits!”


“I've known Erica for YEARS. She's a truly kind, sweet person who genuinely loves animals 🩷. This was her first time watching my doggie, but hopefully won't be her last. Peanut loves Erica and her son so much! They took great care of her. I had one happy (and tired ☺️) baby when I got home!”



About: I’ve had family dogs my entire life and currently have my own — Miley, a 9-year-old I adopted in college. She’s a laid-back, couch-loving pup who also enjoys leisurely walks on the greenway. I nanny during the day, but my mornings are open for dog walks or check-ins, and my weekends are typically available for any of the services I offer. Miley is more than happy to share her mom’s time and love with another dog in need of care. Feel free to message me with any questions — I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I work full time as a nanny but have mornings free to come check in on your pet or do walks! Please feel free to message me with any questions! I have cared for and been around a variety of dogs, this includes activity level and size, and i feel as though I am always ready for anything that comes my way!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a kid and have grown up to be a pet loving person! I’ve taken care of dogs of many sizes so it shouldn’t be a challenge for me. I have experience in dog walking and dog care. I have two cats and a small dog that I care for on a daily basis. I am available almost everyday to help care for your beloved animals. I am able to be flexible with drop in times. I currently take care of one dog and two cats. My dog goes on walks everyday and they get fed twice a day. I feed my cats twice daily and clean their litter every other day, they get plenty of cuddles and play time.

“Sarah was amazing! - She stopped in to meet the boys immediately after booking. She kept me updated on their well being, and even trusted Buddy to play outside for a bit while she was here. Thank You! :)”


“Mackenzie was awesome! She took lots of pictures of my cat —even several of the cat sitting in her lap! Mittens was happy when I got home and her litter box was clean. Thank you Mackenzie!!”


About: With over six years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant and a background in Veterinary Technician studies, I have developed strong skills in caring for a diverse array of pets. After taking time off to be a stay-at-home mom, I am eager to bring my expertise and passion for animal care back into the field! I am available on Friday and Saturday evenings after 6pm and Sunday and Mondays throughout the day! This schedule is subject to change due to being a full time stay at home momma. In clients homes I respect boundaries and upkeep the areas your pets use. I will ensure they are comfort and trusting of me before approaching and interacting!

“Julia went above and beyond to make sure my cat and house were taken care of! Very communicative, friendly, and amazing girl. She made it here even in the snow - I will always hire her again!”


About: As avid pet lovers and experienced caregivers, we bring a wealth of knowledge and affection to dog sitting. With years of hands-on experience, we understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing environment for furry friends. From daily walks to interactive playtime, we prioritize the well-being and happiness of each dog under our care. We are adept at following specific care instructions, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of love and attention. Our commitment to responsible pet care ensures that owners can trust their beloved companions are in capable hands while they're away. Matt is 100% remote so works from home every day. He is able to provide around the clock care for your pets including walks and play time. We provide the individualized care that is needed for your pet. We provide walks, companionship, play time, feeding and medication services, bathing for an additional price, etc. Since we do not have a fenced in yard, we will only take your pet out on a leash to ensure their safety. Our cats stay in the basement during boarding stays so there will be no interaction between them.

About: In addition to caring for my own dog and cat, I've also helped with my neighbor's dog, and my sister's dogs. I've got a fully fenced in back yard that's almost a full acre. And my german shepherd is incredibly sweet and gentle around other animals. I keep my weekends free so I can hang out with your pet! With school out my 15 year old daughter is home too and is eager to help love on some new pooches. My mother is also home most of the time working, and we are used to loud dog barks! In my home I have a German shepherd upstairs full time and a pit bull mix downstairs in the afternoon. Both are sweet and energetic and love new dogs! My cat does better with people, but she knows how to stay out of dodge when its needed. We do crate our dog when we leave the house but she free roams at night, alternating between the bed and the floor and the couch as she pleases. I would require your dog to be crate trained in case I need to leave the house during a boarding session. In your home, your rule is law. Whether its feeding your cat a carefully measured amount of wet food or keeping the litter box filled exactly half way, your standards are mine and I'm happy to go the extra mile. Likewise for a doggy drop-in to walk and feed. I always pick up after my pet on a walk so your neighbors have nothing to fear from me. And I'm used to reigning in a 90lb German shepherd who wants to make friends with every neighborhood stray cat so you can rest assured that I can keep hold of your dog on a walk.

About: Hi! I have taken care of puppies and dogs since I was 8 years old. I helped my family raise numerous litters, assisted with medical care, and cared for dogs through all stages of life. I have always had a dog by my side to call my best friend, and have many fur-iends I care for when their families go out of town. I WFH and can be available! I am looking to help those throughout the day and some at night if you get in a pinch. I am well equipped to handle your furry family member in your home and environment - knowing their wants and needs. Please let me know their favorite routine, treat, TV show, toy, walk, etc.

Erin & Matthew K.Star Sitter
“Erin has been a colleague of mine at Va Western Community College for about 3 years, and it took approximately one shift for me to realize we had acquired an AWESOME hire. Her work is impeccable, as is her attention to detail; she is calm in the face of pressure; both intuitive and logic-driven; a quick learner; and just plain smart. If I assign a task or project to Erin, I know it will be done on time and properly. More importantly, she's good people. She is compassionate and loves to dote on both pets and humans alike! While I haven't needed her to look after my own pets, I would unquestionably do so if needed. I hear many adoring tales Erin tells about her own cats, and also hear her inquire about others' pets, eager to check in on their wellbeing and see the latest pictures we've taken of our furbabies. A few more Erin-adjectives popped in my head as I've been typing: punctual, responsive, responsible, reliable, and comforting. What more could you ask for?! ; ) I'm happy to offer this recommendation for Erin K and have full confidence you won't regret a decision to hire her!”


Lydia H.
“Lydia has always been an animal lover and pets gravitate towards her. She is very patient with new furbabies, as they get comfortable with her and their home away from home. She's helped me with my dogs and cat over the years. She's truly an above and beyond kind of sitter. With her, they'll get lots of snuggles, walks, and belly rubs.”


Miranda F.
“Miranda is a patient, loving pet sitter with a big passion for dogs. She is dependable and shows up when she says she will. She is able to handle our two rambunctious huskies by earning their trust. She is their favorite and even can get them to sing. I highly recommend Miranda to care for your pet.”
Starkey pet parents share their Rover experiences
Haley did an excellent job! I was a little nervous when we got home late that our senior dog would be anxiously pacing the house. He does not like changes in his routine. Alvin was happily sleeping in the kitchen when we got home! She apparently was able to keep him calm, give him his medications, and treat him just like we were here.
